Which line for 2004 spool?

[Nugget]

My RCS spool for my luvias will be here any day now. I am wondering what I should spool it with. I am currently using 4lb Basshard on one spool and 5lb power pro on the other. I did a few test and using a 1/16th jig head the basshard casts around 3m further then the 5lb power pro. But the knot strength and line strength is no way near the power pro honestly I dont trust it I feel as though it breaks in random places. On the other hand though I sometimes find the 5lb to thick for casting light plastics or hard bodies. Specially when casting in any sort of wind the basshard cuts straight through it.


I am wondering what anyone would recommend that's thin, Strong, Has good knot strength and of course casts well. Going on a 2004 spool so it needs to be pretty thin to get a decent amount on line on there. Capacity - PE 0.6 100m - Fluro Carbon 3lb - 140m, 4lb - 100m

Was thinking of going the new fireline exceed 6.6lb is 0.09mm, Power pro in 3lb ( cant find any diameter on it or a true breaking strain ) Or maybe a sunline super PE ?. What else is out there that should suit my needs?

I run 6lb Super PE on my 2004 Certate. Casts well, no problems with wind knots and its pretty cheap.

I use 6lb Super PE on my 2004 spools and don't have any problems with it.

+3. Only just squeezed on a full 150m spool of Super PE in 6lb. But it fit

4.4lb Fireline Exceed of 4lb Nanofil.

Exceed has a great colour for plastics, Nanofil is just insane if your into skipping plastics into structure.

+4 sunline super PE value for money, casts a mile, easy to see

Is the 6lb sunline 0.6? thats right isn't it ? What colors does it come in anything high vis ? Its looking like a winner so far

[redfinfisho]

I use cast away its PE.6 and its awsome stuff if you want thinner you could try unitika

[Nugget]

I think something not as thin as basshard but not as thick as power pro should do wonders. Going to look into the super pe. Does it come in a color easy to see?

According to that line testing site breaks around 9lb. Should work nicely I
Think.

I got 5lb white power pro on mine. I have no probs with this braid!

[smokindrags]

Super pe comes in Lime green or white.
My choice would be the sunline super pe on that spool


I still like my
* fireline crystal 3lb
* sunline super pe 6lb
* power pro 5lb

I have just spool some exceed fireline
At first feel I'm happy with it.

i have 6lb super pe on my 2004 certate it cast great and is cheap.

How well does the sunline tie? I mostly use fc rock 6 -10 pound. Does it require the slim beauty or Albrights hold up on it?

Sunline Super PE. But if you want the best, Castaway is the go hands down.

varivas egi milky long cast for a 4 plat .6 pe or varivas max power egi in an 8plat .6 pe/.8pe...would be two of my faves..yes a bit more on the expensy side of things but you wont look back once you use them...you pay for what you get
